The guys driving didn't seem panicked (at least not in their voices or their driving.) You don't see them backing up or trying to at all real quick. After it happened, they just kind of talk like it it was no real big deal unless those "were" their excited voices. Also, on wet, slippery pavement like that, I found it hard to believe they were able to come to a complete stop that quickly without skidding. I mean...look at how fast they were going and then to stop that soon...(I wonder.)

BTW, it didn't make me jump or get worked up at all when I saw it. I'm sure I would have freaked if I were in the actual car, but eh...watching it didn't phase me. Was that the same with anyone else?

Thanks for sharing it.
